Jul 05 04:21:12 Zoom in, and it gets uglier for Tesla. Jul 05 04:21:12 Tesla doesn’t break out sales of the Cybertruck, one of its premium models that Musk says was inspired by the dystopian movie “Blade Runner.” It discloses just two categories — the Model 3 and Y in one category and, in the second, “other models,” which is almost entirely the company’s legacy Model S sedan, the Model X SUV and the Cybertruck. Jul 05 04:21:13 The company said it delivered about 10,400 “other” models in the second quarter, which itself is a huge problem for Tesla. In the same quarter last year, Tesla sold more than 21,500 “other” models. It’s hard to think of another word for a 52% decline other than a collapse. Jul 05 04:21:13 Whatever the number of cyber trucks it's impossible they're selling enough to break even. Jul 05 04:21:13 How many of those “others” are Cybertrucks, and how many are the Model S or X? That’s not entirely clear. Jul 05 04:21:13 But let’s look at the first three months of this year. Tesla sold about 12,900 “other” models, of which 7,100 were Cybertrucks, according to registration data from S&P Global Mobility. So a bit more than half." Jul 05 04:21:14 --- Jul 05 04:21:45 Whatever the number of cyber trucks it's impossible they're selling enough to break even. Jul 05 04:22:12 Several thousand per quarter in the entire world and going down. That's not a lot of sales. Jul 05 04:22:31 They're very expensive, not at all practical, very unreliable, massive depreciation, and tons of recalls.
